Today I am exploring baby steps

Dear friends,
These are a couple of masks i made. Do you hide behind a mask? I try to be as authentic as i can be but sometimes i hide behind a mask of acceptability. What about you?

As a few of you know I find it hard to travel far due to health problems. What I do is go to motels and stay overnight. I just did another motel visit 10 minutes from where I live!!!! I took along a box of art materials to do some art, books, crochet. I watched TV and visited the local…

With my creative life i go where my spirit leads me. Sometimes in the past I used to have goals and agendas to complete my creative activities whereas now I like to just go with my spirit.
How do you decide what you will do creatively? Do you have goals, agendas, timetables or do you…

I did this crochet doiley as part of the 30 day challenge. I also dyed the cotton blue quite some time ago. I haven't done any crochet for ages. It was really enjoyable to do and I have started another one.

As part of Julia Cameron's Vein of gold she asked about our different selves. I realise I have different selves. There is one of me who loves traveling but there is one of me who likes to stay close to home. I am trying to honor the traveler more and spend less time close to home. There i…

Anne just started some new writing groups and one of them is article and essay writers. I never realised until then that that is what I enjoy doing. I like writing essays about all sorts of topics. I also like to write pretend articles and would love to write a non fiction book on self development. At my writers class i have been trying to do short stories and poems but now I realise what I want to do is essays so that is what I am going to do. I'm not sure why i am so excited about all this. It…

As many of you know I have mental illness problems that make it very difficult to go to new or busy places. I'd love to travel but this is so hard for me. My latest idea was to go to the motel about 10 minutes from home and see if I could stay overnight. I did it. I booked in at 3pm and did writing and then went for a walk had a shower and then went and brought some tea. I watched TV and did more writing and had a good nights sleep and then did writing and another walk. Then at 11 am it was chec…

I have just started writing poetry in my new writers group. Here is my second poem. I haven't a clue how to do punctuation or edit it yet so here it is as I first conceived it.....
Hangchow 1979
An old fashioned Chinese hotel
Cascading stairs to large rooms
Single beds and desks with writing paper
A hairdresser washes and cuts my hair
Shops sell gifts and stamps.
I sit crocheting by the lake edge
Crowds of Chinese surround me
Staring and enthralled watching me
The Chinese are dressed in blue s…

To explain to others. Lin and Jules wanted to see my latest collage. It is too big to scan so have only shown part of it. It is only a basic one because that was what I was in the mood to do

I am wanting more singing in my life. I am not good at remembering words to songs. The past few days I have started singing my own words to hear my voice. It is a lot of fun. I am glad I have singing back in my life.
I have also started doing dancing with
